Teen prodigy shares incredible crochet creations l GMA 

I’m not ashamed to say Jonah made me, a woman of a certain age, pick up my crochet hook again after a number of years! So inspiring! Thank you for your charitable work too! You rock ❤

His adoptive parents raised such a wonderful son. I love the fact that they didn’t let him forget his roots, and worked with him to give back to the children of his orphanage. This segment had me teary eyed indeed.

I’m so impressed. This kid has passion, smarts, creativity and a kind heart.

Not only he is talented but also well spoken, great confidence and presentation of his work of art👍🏻 keep up young man youre gonna be successful and rich from a really young age, youre determined you know what you wanna do in life you already got it figured out, there is some adults out there that are still lost and havent found their niche yet so good for you your parents must be so proud 💪🏻✌🏻

He has gotten so big. He is an amazing human being 💖

jonah rules. i remember seeing his story when he was younger & was blown away. i knit & crochet & i am a big fan of his. he does wonderful work. he's also grown into such a handsome & exemplary young man. sky's the limit, jonah, you're going to continue to do great things.

For those who don't know, crocheting without looking is hard to learn, because of how accurately you have to place the hook. Jonah picked this up very young. I'm so impressed.

What an awesome kid ,mom and dad did a great job.

I look up to him so much. I was pleased to find out about him a couple years ago during my first go at crochet. Now he is just straight up goals to me during my hardcore crochet addiction these days 😂❤

We need more Jonah's in the world!!!!

Wow wonderful parents he's got who have nurtured his gifts and produced a magnificent human. He's embraced fully all of who he is. So kind and generous. Kudos to his mom and dad. Wonderful young man with a heart of gold.

This kid is DEFINITELY a legend❤❤❤❤❤

Been following Jonah since his first RU-vid video. The way he is now is the way he's been ALWAYS! I don't know that those parents are doing or what's in this young man's soul, but he is treasure.

Good job young man don’t forget where you come from We love you 🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹

Oh my God! Talk about Black Boy Magic! I want to be like him when I grow up! 🙌🏾

GOD bless you my boy. You are the truth kind Ethiopian. Ethiopians are very generous and religious. Mom and Dad did a wonderful job. Keep up the good work. 🙏🙏🙏

Jonah is truly a great ambassador. Talented, very well spoken and smart. Well done young man. Your parents have done an exceptional job.

A confident, well spoken 15-year-old who is not afraid to share his crafting with the world ❤

My son is 14 and he has made a sweater, pants, bucket cap, headband and is working on a new set of pants and his knots have reached the professional level! I am very proud and we’re trying figure out a business name for him! His name is Emilio ❤

I am so proud of him. I ran across his RU-vid channel, when he was very young . He is growing up so very well. He has a big heart and a great head on his shoulders. Wishing you much success with your future goals. ❤❤❤

That sweater he's wearing is fantastic crocheting! Such a lovely young man! ♡LndSu

This young man is amazing! I been crocheting about 2 years. It upset me that these news anchors did not have the courtesy to try on these beautiful hats this young man made! Shame on all of you. He put love into each stitch!! This young man is such am inspiration! Wish there was more kids like him !! I watched this live and three days later it still bothering me that they did not try on his special hats!!!

What an incredible young man. So impressed with all that he does.

What an amazing kid! So talented , smart and a great heart. What a great mom and dad too for raising such a thoughtful guy. God bless them all.

Jonah! You did so great! Keep it up! And congratulations on your school goal! So excited to see what your next goal is.

What an amazing young person! His mama looks so proud!

At only 15 he's doing so much. God bless him and keep him.

He is lucky to have a special mother

Can’t stop smiling throughout the video. He’s so inspiring and well-spoken too!

Beautiful Child, I hope & pray that he sees the beauty of his people & culture not just the financial struggles 🙏🏽

What a beautiful human! I have a feeling he will be spreading love and light far and wide for a long time.

What a delightful young man he is! I've been watching him over the last few years as he's grown incredibly in his wonderful talent, and as he's helped so many children in Ethiopia. I'm a crocheter with 50 years of experience; I taught my now deceased son to crochet when he was 8 y.o., and his cousin, my sister's older son, to crochet when he was 25 y.o. He and his wife crochet together every evening, though I doubt they do any kind of good things with their talents (very self-centric people, unfortunately). I love seeing people, especially young people, sharing their gifts with others. Thank you, Jonah, for all that you're doing.....and your creations are beautiful!

Such a wonderful young man! Many blessings to him and his family! 💗

I remember coming across his story when he was about 6 and just last night I was telling someone about him while I was crocheting at church. When I say God is so awesome. He is making crooked paths straight. "Give and it shall be given unto you, good measure pressed down and shaken together shall men pour into your bosom," says Lord 🙌 God bless his heart, my heart and others with overflowing generosity from the heart of the Savior 🙌 Jesus Christ our Lord

Wow very well spoken and so kind and compassionate. Big things are coming your way.

Great young man and lovely mum and dad who have adopted him its them that have given him a wonderful beginning in life bless them.

Amazing!!! Thank you, sir, for sharing your gift and bringing us so much joy!!

Wow! Impressive young man. He will definitely go places.

Love Jonah. He’s so well spoken and such a wonderful human being. The world needs more of jonahs and giving back. Rare to find someone as sweet, smart, driven abs giving as he is at any age. Bless him and his family and his parents. As someone who is adopted from another country as well it’s awesome his parents actively never let him forget his roots. They did an amazing job as he is an amazing person!

What a inspiring young man!!

He’s such a super person with an enormous heart…. I’ve been watching him ever since he started crocheting and now he’s 15. It’s amazing how time flies you’re doing such a great work work for Ethiopia. God bless you son..🥰🥰

I'm 31 years old and have been teaching myself crocheting from RU-vid the last couple months as personal creative development. I've even been selling some of my pieces! This kid is an inspiration to me! I want to be like him when I grow up! ❤️

Enjoy him since day one. Love his work and people if you don't have anything nice to say. I think 🤔 u should just zap it .haters don't go anywhere...just saying .. keep up the good work and be you always. many Blessings ❤️🙏.🧶

That kid is so talented

He is so talented!!! love this young man and the patterns he shares

Wow!! Jonah you got me so inspired man. Great job and well done. I had the biggest smile during this entire interview!! And to see your parents keep their promise with your connection to Ethiopia 🇪🇹 is so amazing. Keep up the good work.

God bless Jonah! So sweet hearted thoughtful thinking of others. The parents did a wonderful job raising this young man. God bless the family.

I love that kid!!! He has such an amazing passion for crocheting, life, and others. May God bless Jonah and his family ❤

I LOVE his work. This website is frequently sold out, obviously hand made products take longer, but I'm waiting patiently to add to my collect works from Jonah. I get so much use from the items I buy from him.

Jonah is the bomb. Love this young man. ❤️ I crochet and he inspires me

I can't believe Jonah is 15! He's been such an inspiration to so many people (including me)!

I love 💕 love love 💕 Jonah’s story truly is inspiring. Keep up the amazing job you’re doing. God bless you and your family and your Ethiopian family and friends . Keep up the great work.

This 15 year old is going places. A world leader some day. He was an orphan. Instead of feeling sorry for himself, he turns it into inspiration to help others.

I’m so sure with the practice of business skills, love, support & goals this young man is going to do amazing things with his life❤ May he be blessed with success.

Wow! What bright young man!! Our world needs kids like this, now more than ever! Gives me such hope for the future! Great segment!

He's back! I kept wondering through the pandemic what he was up to. I have crochet since I was 12 so I really enjoyed seeing Jonah getting some limelight. Let's bring peace through crafting.

Jonah! Have not forgotten his Roots. What a fantastic young man. He talks with passion in his quest to achieve his golds for the children he left in Ethiopia.

I follow this kid since he started his IG and this young man is amazing!!!!.... Keep going,, do not change , we love you so much

Jonah is incredible, he inspired me to keep going in crochet when I felt like giving up! Its so beautiful what he does with his work, he truly is a wonderful soul, way to go Jonah! So proud to be apart of the yarny community!

I love Jonah ❤️. I too learned to crochet through RU-vid videos only I was 60 years old. HA!!

I like when he’s himself - such a cool kid! However, if I click on a video and it’s clearly sponsored by X brand, and he’s just reciting lines, it falls so flat and I just can’t watch it :/

All adoptive parents should be like his and honor their child's roots.

Awesome young man and wonderful family! hehehehe had to giggle at a fellow "yarny's" response upon being handed a basket of yarn - "do I get to keep the yarn?" - my thoughts exactly! lol!!

I subscribed to Jonah way back he is pure and utter awesomeness ❤

Ole soul! Giving back through his talent is Awesome!!

❤❤❤Boy is Talent

WOW! Time flies... Look how he's grown! Blessed Love and Light to him ! Well done!

Unbelievable, what an amazing young boy. We are proud of him and his parents. A beautiful and intelligent young boy.

I'm a crocheter and I absolutely love this kid!!! My kids can crochet too cause I taught them❤️

I have been crocheting longer than this talented young man has been on this planet. Yet he beats me hands down. Love it! Handmade goods are not dead!

Wow beautiful

That made me cry of joy he is so talented

OMG jonah is such a wonderful person!! he is just a bit older then me and is doing so much and is soooo talented in crochet. as someone who is a bit of a beginner in crochet, he truly inspires me!💖

Jonah is amazing!!! He is talented and has a ton of wisdom for a teenager.❤

He makes me want to get passionate about my purpose again and give this love away!!! I love his energy.

Oh Jonah, you've grown up from a wonderful boy to a wonderful young man! Well done 👏

I’ve been on a binge watching his videos making so many items!

Jonah, you truly have something special inside of you. With your big heart, your enthusiasm, and your charming eloquence, I can’t wait to see where God will take you in the future!

I think he was about 7 when I saw him last on a news show. What an amazing young man he is. I have been crocheting since I was 12 and let me just say I can't look away like he does for fear of missing a stitch lol. Great job Mom and Dad.

Kids today amaze me

I just love watching this young man crochet. His work is beautiful.

Bravo Jonah! 👏👏👏💖

Oh wow this is great how this young boy taking things even he is adopted and has no complains. And look at the other side of the society where the similar age of kids having guns and shooting everywhere and noone can control them.

Jonah doesn't need to follow a pattern; he is the pattern!! I haven't seen that much wool in any store for ages and those colours jump out at you. I'd love to see the gangsters, who say they have nothing to do, have a "crochet off"!! What a picture that makes. haha

Wow, Jonah is KILLING it. His academic future is set. I hope he goes as far as he wants to in life.

Love it love it love it! And i love that he's being recognized for his awesomeness. ❤

I am so excited to see the progress he has made with his craft. He is a wonderful maker.

Wow I can't stop smiling 🥲☺

Wow, intelligent little gentleman. I love crocheting too. 💝💝💝💝

keep your Marvel heroes . This kid is a real hero . There is still hope .

Such an inspiring young man. His Mom must be so proud. X

What a vivid and smart boy! He is a wonderful human! ❤️

Awesome Kid . Like Jonah say, Crochet away friends 🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶
